Ashley Purdy Is My Saviour. (COMPLETED)

Chapter Twenty Three: Heartships

I'm impatient when it comes to phone calls. I tap my foot in frustration.

"Hello?" Jinxx says. Well now we got somewhere.

"Where the fuck is My Girl?!"

I hear a sigh on the other end. "She's with me. And fine. In fact, she's paying for her stuff now. Wanna talk to her?"

"Where the hell are you?!" I really hope she's not paying for sex toys. Jinxx wouldn't allow it.

"She's just buying some clothes. Get over yourself. Do wanna talk to her or not?"

"Fine. Hand it over." There's some shuffling with the phone and I hear a very faint "Hello?"

"Where are you?" I asked "politely" so she wouldn't get scared off.

"At the mall with Jeremy. It's okay. I will be home in about a hour okay?" Still very faint. Why did she say Jeremy and not Jinxx? Hm, I'd ask her later.

"Just make it quick okay? I want you home." I hear a sigh. Hers or Jinxx?

"Why? I'm perfectly fine. The mall doesn't close for another hour."

"Don't argue with me. Just get home."

"Fine. You suck the fun out of everthing!" Then she hangs up. I suck the fun out? Fuck that it's usually Andy that does that. I pace while she comes back. The pacing turns into staring out the window. Great. I'm becoming over protective. I end up sitting on the couch writing lyrics. Then a car horn blows. I run out the door to see Joey and Jinxx with armfuls of shopping bags.

"What the hell?"

"It was Jeremy's idea. He payed for just about everything." She said all calm.

"What the fuck where you doing with My Girl? On a date to make her yours?!"

"Calm down Ash. She needed fresh air. Leave the girl alone. She'll make a full recovery. In due time she will. Just take it slow." Why he is preaching again? Thinks he knows everything. Gets on my fucking nerves.

"Help me take these to my room?"

"Of course." Jinxx replied. What the fuck is going on?!

Joey's point of view

I can feel Jeremy's stare as I lead him up to my room. Ashley is probably pissed at me for taking him up here. But I really don't give a fuck. Having someone else in the house is really nice because it's not Ashley. "Where do you want them?" He asked and woke me from my daze.

"Oh.. Uh... Just any where will be fine."

"Joey.. I feel wrong being up here... I should leave.."

"Jeremy. You are fine up here. It's just my room.. What's so wrong about it?"

"It's just.. I'm in your space.. I don't feel right here and Ash is going to be pissed."

"Why is it all about Ashley?! Ashley this. Ashley that. Ashley is getting on my fucking nerves!" That makes him jump. It was actually kind of funny the way he did.

"Joey.. This is about you and only you. Your recovery has nothing to do with Ash. He just wants you to remember him. That's all. That's all he wants. That's what all of us want. You to remember us. But to do that.. Is something all of us and you have to commit to." His words calm me for some odd reason. "What about-" Then he comes barging in.

"What'd you do her?!"

"I'm fine Ashley. Just leave me alone." My voice was cold. I wanted it to be. Just for him.
